When Nvidia Corp. released its code-named GF104 chip earlier this year, it was widely believed that the graphics processor would eventually power dual-chip graphics board for enthusiasts demanding maximum performance. But as time went on, Nvidia remained quiet about its potential dual-chip flagship product. However, it looks like one of Nvidia's partners wants to create such a device itself.

Zotac, a well-known maker of Nvidia GeForce-based graphics cards, is reportedly working on a dual-chip graphics card powered by two GeForce GTX 460 graphics processing units (GPUs), reports Expreview web-site. The board will be, at least initially, equipped with 2GB of GDDR5 memory (1GB per chip) and will feature four DVI-I connectors so to make it easier to plug in three monitors for stereoscopic 3D surround gaming. The Zotac GTX 460X2 will require rather robust power supply unit with two 8-pin PCIe power plugs.
